This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from tracheobronchial tree, percutaneous approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0BP037Z

UNSPSC 85572169, Removal of autologous tissue substitute from tracheobronchial tree, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal clinical procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not align with it — they span independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing, none of which involve removal of autologous tissue substitutes from the tracheobronchial tree. The code appears to capture a highly specialized interventional pulmonology procedure that does not surface in routine state and local procurement activity; the mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the opportunities posted against it suggests either miscoding in the source data or extremely limited procurement relevance for this particular service line in the state and local market.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities span diverse state and local entities—cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), counties (Harris, Collier, Santa Clara), and state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation)—but none of the solicitations are actually purchasing the procedure named in the code. The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida. Given the fundamental disconnect between the code and what is actually being solicited, firms should treat this code as inactive for state and local opportunity purposes and verify coding accuracy with procurement offices before investing in pursuit activity.
